We study the possibility of triply-degenerate points (TPs) that can be stabilized in spinless crystalline systems. Based on an exhaustive search over all 230 space groups, we find that the spinless TPs can exist at both high-symmetry points and high-symmetry paths, and they may have either linear or quadratic dispersions. For TPs located at high-symmetry points, they all share a common minimal set of symmetries, which is the point group $T$. The TP protected solely by the $T$ group is chiral and has a Chern number of $pm2$. By incorporating additional symmetries, this TP can evolve into chiral pseudospin-1 point, linear TP without chirality, or quadratic contact TP. For accidental TPs residing on a high-symmetry path, they are not chiral but can have either linear or quadratic dispersions in the plane normal to the path. We further construct effective $kcdot p$ models and minimal lattice models for characterizing these TPs. Distinguished phenomena for the chiral TPs are discussed, including the extensive surface Fermi arcs and the chiral Landau bands.
Recent progress in nanofabrication and additive manufacturing have facilitated the building of nanometer-scale three-dimensional structures, that promise to lead to an emergence of new functionalities within a number of fields, compared to state-of-t
We study theoretically the transport properties of a three-dimensional spin texture made from three orthogonal helices, which is essentially a lattice of monopole-antimonopole pairs connected by Skyrmion strings. This spin structure is proposed for M
The past decade has witnessed a surge of interest in exploring emergent particles in condensed matter systems. Novel particles, emerged as excitations around exotic band degeneracy points, continue to be reported in real materials and artificially en
The ability to experimentally map the three-dimensional structure and dynamics in bulk and patterned three-dimensional ferromagnets is essential both for understanding fundamental micromagnetic processes, as well as for investigating technologically-
Graphene, a two dimensional (2D) carbon sheet, acquires many of its amazing properties from the Dirac point nature of its electronic structures with negligible spin-orbit coupling. Extending to 3D space, graphene networks with negative curvature, cal
